Name: Nancy-Jo Dillman on Jun 17, 2008Comments: These medals should never have been given in the first place to a bunch of deranged killers!!! The military was at their absolute worst hour at Wounded Knee.A shame and a blight that will never fade from the annals of U.S. military history. They should have been handing out court-martials, not medals!!!Flag

Name: Carla Kohler on Jun 17, 2008Comments: When you see the names of the individuals slaughtered at this so called battle, you realize that these were mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and grandchildren and grandparents. Not just a random number of accidental casualties.But families murdered for no other reason but callous greed. I pray for the spirits of these people, that they may have peace.Flag

Name: Tim Huffman (crowwolf) on Jun 18, 2008Comments: These medals of DIS honor must be recended and their should be no battle pennant on the flag of the US Army, how can the slaughter of unarmed people be called a "battle" Had it been the other way around it would have been deemed a "massacre". If these medals are allowed to remain, the government may as well give every other cold blooded killer the same medal. There is no difference.Flag
